Stitching in colour: French Braid Table Runner

Initially, I wanted to post this under the "blue" category of the challenge, but I'm behind (boo), so I'm sharing this now.

This table runner is the result of trying out some kind of french braid pattern for fun. I wasn't going anywhere specific, I just wanted to see how it looked. Using pre-cut fabric from two jelly rolls made the inner part quick and easy. Doing all the rest wasn't though. Ah well, a few lessons learned.

Here are some detail shots to show some of the quilting:

It's leaving me soon to be sent to France. I hope my friend will like it! How about you?
